JESUS
He began His ministry by being hungry, yet He is the Bread of Life.
Jesus ended His earthly ministry by being thirsty, yet He is the Living Water.

Jesus paid tribute, yet He is the King.
Jesus was accused of having a demon, yet He cast out demons.

OUR "IN JESUS" VOICE
I'm always intrigued by the phrase some parents and care-givers use with children: "Now children, we need to use our 'indoor' voices."

Those voices need to lift up,

Hello, My Name is ...
“The witness of Lazarus.”
We are not sure that Lazarus ever spoke, I am sure he did, but the Bible doesn’t record it.
I certainly would have loved to have heard him share his testimony, maybe something like this.
“Hello, my name is Lazarus, and I am truly honored to speak to

There has never been a man like the Lord Jesus. John Phillips wrote these words about Jesus that deeply stirred me. He said, "He never uttered a hasty, unkind, untrue, or frivolous word. He never entertained an impure thought. His talents never debased for selfish ends. His influence, never bad.

GOD'S OTHER NAMES
A mother walked by her young son’s room one night and heard him praying, "Andy, please forgive me for my sins".
This worried the mother; so she asked her son why was he praying to "Andy", not God.
The son responded, "I was praying to God, Andy is his nickname."

MY NAME IS LEGION
"Within my earthly temple there’s a crowd; There’s one of us that’s humble, and one of us that’s proud.

But a black mark on your name, son,
can never be erased.
It was clean the day you took it,
and a

A NAME ON THE BILL OF RIGHTS
The Black Brigade or Black Regiment were the preachers, because they wore black robes. Black preachers, white preachers — they all wore black robes. And the British specifically blamed the preachers for the American Revolution. That's where the title "Black Regiment"
